Low BMI sleevers... results?
I had a BMI of 31 and self funded which cost me a shit load of money. I have had no problems losing weight except now for the last few kgs. My dr warned me that some people would be very opinionated about the surgery because I never looked like I needed it lol.

FAD DIETS after WLS
It will always be something I think about. Food being something we need to survive and want for pleasure. It is always in the back of my mind no matter how full I am from " just eating" I'm already looking forward to eating again. I feel like I'm more focused on food now then I ever was before. I can't win lol

I had Dr Harsha at Murdoch. He's such a great dr and very informative as he has had the procedure himself so knows first hand all about it. He and his team are really good.
